Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, distribute 3 into the parenthesis:
3(4 - 2x) = -2x
12 - 6x = -2x
Next, combine your x variables by adding +6x to both side:
12 - 6x = -2x (-6x and +6x cancel out)
+6x +6x
12 = 4x (divide 12 by 4 to get x by itself)
/4 /4
x = 3
Answer:666 hours
Step-by-step explanation: The reason is that if you turn the problem into an equation it would be h=Lx. h= hours. L=how long the log lasts and x=how many logs. So when you plug in the numbers you get 101010=L*151515. So we need to find L. What you do is you divide both sides by 151515 since it is the opposite of multiplication. 151515/151515 gets crossed out and 101010/151515 is .6666666666666 irrational. So the equation now looks like .666666 irrational=L. So .66666 irrational is your L. Know you plug .666666 irrational into your original equation. Which is now h=.6666 irrational*x. So to find how long the fire keeps on burning with 999 logs you just plug 999 into x and now your equation looks like this h=.6666 irrational*999. If you multiply .6666 irrational by 999 your final answer is 666.
The answer is y=(1/20)x^2
Ummm...i think it is 265 because i did it the easy way i added
